A unique and signature feature of the Ross MBA program is the Multidisciplinary Action Project (MAP) — the action learning experience it provides is central to the School’s curriculum. Students learn how businesses apply and integrate multiple functions and gain an appreciation of the value of teamwork through an intense hands-on project at a sponsoring company. Taken by all first-year MBAs students for an entire term. Students work full-time with fellow classmates to tackle a real business challenge for a sponsor company. Almost half of the projects undertaken are outside the US. The MAP experience is designed to help students hone their analytical, project management, and leadership skills. It’s a true action-based approach to learning, with high stakes and real impact.
